The beautiful Pangon Lake, which sits high up in the Himalayas at a stunning altitude of 4350 metres, is quite popular with tourists from all over the world! It’s name is derived from the Tibetan word ‘Bangong Cuò’, meaning ‘enchanted, narrow and long lake’, and the waterbody certainly lives up to the description! Despite being a saltwater lake, Pangong freezes completely during the harsh winter months and few animals, except crustaceans, can survive in the water. Mesmerizing and scenic, the area is a haven for nature lovers and adventure enthusiasts alike!
